Yeah boarding would be an option. You wouldn't be able to capture the ships though, only sabotage them and destroy them from the inside. We're still concepting out how various aspects of ship management will go but the bridge crew is probably going to have plenty going on. Most weapons will be controlled by the ship AI (so they autoload and autofire at the prioritised enemy targets) but more powerful weapons may require manual loading or unjamming, and players will be able to come over and take over control of any turret at any time).
